Ok, I had the same problem but recall that at one point the Blitzz BWU did work on Ubuntu and I recalled the driver's name. This will work as I just installed it follow this:Go to the Synaptic Package manager and search for the atmel-firmware.Check install and apply. Once installed the Blitzz BWU USB wireless adaptor will work.

NETGEAR does not offer any offcial drivers for the adapter to work on Ubuntu as they dont support Linux OS. However, you may try third party drivers to install the adapter on Ubuntu. Try the below link:

I had the same problem, but due to legal issues there won't be any linksys drivers available for linux any time soon. What i did was to sell mine and buy a different one with full compatibility with both windows and linux.

Sorry to break it up to you but I tried looking for a driver for linux for the motorola wu830g but was unsuccessful but you could try ndiswrapper it didn't work for me though but I was using Ubuntu good luck =)

Ubuntu is up to 8.04. They made a lot of improvements to the network interface. You should upgrade. Go to "system-administration-software sources-" click on the updates tab and then select normal updates under release upgrade in the updates tab. Ubuntu will then tell you that you have updates. State the update manager and click on the option to upgrade to the next version up. If you aren't sure how to do this write me back and I will help you.
